House For Sale £2,500,000
A wonderful family home on the edge of a popular village. Enjoying open countryside views and a stunning pool terrace, this house offers substantial living areas and outbuildings
Description
Hill Farm was constructed in the 1990's on a magnificent and private elevated plot on the edge of the village.
The ground floor accommodation is centred off the entrance hallway with a formal sitting room, dining room and study. Opening onto the garden is an orangery - with the kitchen breakfast room being a light, open space with fitted units, Aga range and granite topped island unit. Completing the ground floor is a utility room and guest cloakroom.
On the first floor there are five bedrooms, with the main bedroom having an en suite bathroom, the others sharing a bathroom and additional shower room. These rooms enjoy magnificent views over the surrounding countryside.
Outside, to the side of the house are two triple garage blocks, one of which has an internal staircase leading to a games room above, ideal for conversion to an annex (subject to planning).
The parkland style gardens extend to around 3.6 acres with a sweeping driveway and turning area providing parking for numerous vehicles. The grounds and stable block can be accessed via a separate gate, ideal for equestrian use.
To the rear of the house is a sunken terrace with the swimming pool inset. This connects with the summerhouse - where there is a changing room and plant room. A covered terrace provides an additional sheltered area if needed.
Location
The highly regarded village of Arkesden is located in the heart of rolling countryside and yet is only a few moments from the larger towns of Saffron Walden and Newport.
The village has a picturesque, thatched pub called the Axe and Compasses - which is due to reopen this year after a fire in 2022.
The area is criss crossed with a network of foot and bridle paths connecting the nearby villages over undulating open countryside.
These offer a variety of shopping and schooling facilities.
Main line train services to London can be found less than 10 minutes away at Audley End and Newport.
The market town of Bishop’s Stortford is to the south with a further selection of shopping, travel and transport facilities.
There is a good selection of both state and private schooling within the area.
Square Footage: 6,287 sq ft
